SUMMARY:Cross Examination and Courtroom Preparation for Law Enforcement - FREE!
DESCRIPTION:This FREE presentation prepares law enforcement officers and detention personnel to testify effectively during cross-examination by understanding how attorneys identify vulnerabilities\, how impeachment works\, how reports are compared against recordings and prior statements\, and how officer demeanor affects credibility. It gives officers practical courtroom habits that support truthful testimony and accurate recordkeeping. \nTopics Include: \n\nWhy cross-examination is designed to test credibility\, accuracy\, memory\, bias\, & report completeness.\nDistinguishing between personal observation\, inference\, later-acquired knowledge\, hearsay\, & refreshed recollection.\nIdentifying common defense tactics such as yes/no compression\, repetition\, document ambush\, tunnel-vision attacks\, and impeachment by omission.\nWriting reports that accurately document legally significant facts without overstating certainty or hiding uncertainty.\nAnswering difficult questions directly while refusing to adopt misleading premises.\nCorrecting errors candidly and explaining omissions without becoming argumentative.\nMaintaining a professional demeanor before\, during\, and after testimony.\n\nAbout the Presenter:\nApril Wood has practiced law for more than 21 years. She began her career as an Assistant Prosecuting Attorney in a large jurisdiction that allowed her to work with victims affected by violent crime.

SUMMARY:Nitazenes: Recognizing & Responding to a Resurfacing Synthetic Opioid Hazard - FREE!
DESCRIPTION:A powerful synthetic opioid threat is resurfacing in Missouri. Nitazenes\, a class of opioids first developed decades ago but never approved for medical use in the United States\, are now being detected in the illicit drug supply across the country and here in Missouri. Through a school wastewater monitoring program led by the Missouri Department of Public Safety\, nitazenes have been detected in 26 of 37 participating Missouri schools since January. \nThis timely and FREE training will help law enforcement officers\, jail staff\, school resource officers\, investigators\, supervisors\, and public safety professionals understand what nitazenes are\, how they are resurfacing in Missouri\, why traditional drug screening may miss them\, and how to respond when an overdose or suspected synthetic opioid incident occurs. Participants will discuss recognition indicators\, responder safety\, naloxone considerations\, evidence concerns\, communication with EMS and public health partners\, and the importance of fast\, informed action when seconds matter. \nTopics Include: \n\nCommon nitazene currently appearing in illicit drug markets;\nThe risks to law enforcement personnel during handling\, searches\, and evidence processing;\nSafe handling and response procedures; and\nEmergency response procedures\, including naloxone administration.\n\nPresenter:\nCaptain Shawn Collie\nBuchanan County Drug Strike Force \nClick to register \nDownload Flyer
